Brand Designer

About HASHAt HASH, we’re building open-source infrastructure to solve information failure and help everybody make the right decisions. Our platform helps firms integrate structured and unstructured information into knowledge graphs that support simulating, optimizing and automating processes.We’re building towards world models from a different starting point from most AI labs: typed, temporal representations of real systems and the processes that change them. Our founders include Joel Spolsky, who founded Stack Overflow and Trello; Jude Allred, formerly CTO of Glitch; and Dei Vilkinsons, formerly CEO of Soho Strategy.About the roleHASH works on ideas that are powerful but not always simple: knowledge graphs, processes that change through time, simulations, interventions, operational decisions and new approaches to AI. We’re hiring a senior Brand Designer who can make those ideas clear, persuasive and unmistakably <HASH.You> will own the visual expression of HASH across sales and marketing communications: decks, diagrams, illustrations, editorial graphics, email, social campaigns, case studies, reports and selected web work.Some assignments will begin with a good brief. Others will begin with a dense technical document, a rough founder deck or a seller saying, “I need this company to understand why their process can be modelled.” You will need to find the structure, challenge what is unclear and produce an answer that communicates rather than decorates. You will be responsible both for high-craft work and for the templates and systems that let the rest of the company move quickly without diluting the brand.RequirementsA portfolio demonstrating exceptional typography, layout, hierarchy and visual storytellingStrong examples of persuasive presentations and editorial or campaign systems, not only identities and logosThe ability to turn a complicated technical idea into an original diagram or illustration that genuinely improves understandingSystems thinking: you build reusable components and templates, while knowing when an important moment deserves something bespokeSpeed, organization and comfort shipping through multiple review cycles without losing the central ideaThe ability to work directly with founders, sellers, marketers and engineers, extract what matters and challenge an overloaded or incoherent briefCuriosity about AI, graphs, simulation and complex enterprise systems, and the willingness to understand what you are depictingThe judgment to art-direct yourself and produce excellent work without waiting for a creative directorExperience in brand or communications design for enterprise technology, AI, data infrastructure, developer tools or scientific organizations is particularly relevant. So is information design, technical illustration, data visualization, motion, or building presentation systems in Figma, Google Slides or PowerPoint.This is not primarily a product-design role. Experience with digital products is helpful, but your main responsibility will be how HASH communicates outside the product.What you'll doDesign and continuously improve HASH’s core company, sales, pilot and research decksTurn complex product and process concepts into clear diagrams, illustrations and visual narrativesCreate distinctive editorial graphics for blog posts, newsletters, social media, case studies and reportsBuild campaign and launch systems that work coherently across several formatsProduce one-pagers, leave-behinds and account-specific sales collateral under real deadlinesEstablish modular templates and components that non-designers can use safelyExtend HASH’s visual language across typography, layout, illustration, diagrams, data visualization, screenshots, motion and generated imageryMaintain organized source files, libraries and practical guidance so work remains reusableCollaborate with technical experts to make sure diagrams are accurate, not merely plausibleWork with Marketing on briefs and priorities and with Sales on the communication obstacles in live dealsRaise the quality bar while preserving speedWhy HASHDefine a visual language around difficult and worthwhile ideas, rather than applying an established corporate templateWork across sales, editorial, campaigns, research communication and selected web projectsCollaborate directly with the founder, marketers, sellers, researchers and engineersJoin at a moment of rapid growth, with outsized scope and influence: we're now scaling, having raised $5.5m from Silicon Valley VCs and contracted >$10m revenue in the last 18 monthsBe part of a high-agency team that cares about output, ownership and qualityBenefitsA base salary will be offered of £65,000-100,000 in London.
